Question

what is the difference between molecule and compound??

Answer 1

hi....

Molecule is made of 2 or more atoms. Many molecules make a compound. A compound need not be made of the same type of molecules, example, hydrogen peroxide h2O2 is made of both hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Same applies for a molecule, for example diatomic halogen molecules like F2,Cl2,Br2,I2 exist but sometimes a variety of elements can make a molecule like H2O .....

hope this helps
